Psalm 27:4-5, 13-14

4 One thing i have desired of the LORD,That will i seek:
That i may dwell in the house of the LORD
All the days of m life,
To behold the beauty of the LORD,
And to inquire in HIS temple.
5 For in times of trouble
HE shall hide me in HIS pavillion;
In the secret place of HIS tabernacle
HE shall hide me;
HE shall set me high upon a rock.

13 I would have lost heart, unless i had believed
That i would see the goodness of the LORD
In the land of the living.

14 Wait on the LORD;
Be of good courage,
And HE shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, i say, on the LORD!

For indeed out of the mouth of babes, you ordained strength..
Simple in words.. yet powerful...

"HE is your understanding"
"He's the one who carry the responsiblity not you"
"you're trusted for HE's the one who's trusting you in who you're as who you're"

Many times we tried to be responsible christians and citizens.. doing our part for society.. Or responsible leaders in church taking responsibility understanding those below us and submitting to those above us...

Seeking people's understanding in the things we do.. hoping that everyone sees our point of view.. in the decisions we make.. hoping that they trust and understands us..

As many times as these things happen.. it's that many times we forgot that Jesus is the one carrying that responsibility.. the responsibility of things to happen.. the responsibility to gain trust and understanding... Responsibility to submit and be pastoral..

It was never us.. It's Christ.. It' Grace.. they are ONE..

Yes, on the surface we carry the responsibility.. But.. we don't realise that it's the grace of God that gives us strength to carry that burden of all that's mentioned here.. For HIS burden is light and HIS yolk is easy..

It's grace that gives us understanding of heart..
It's grace that holds us when no one trust us..
It's grace that gives us security to submit..
It's grace that empowers to love people..
It's grace that enables... us to be responsible..

If responsibility is part of our life.. Jesus is definitely in it.. cuz HE promised that HE never leave us nor forsake us...



Selah



I've been misunderstood, unheard, not trusted by, not believed in...


But i hold on to this..

1 Peter 5:6-7
6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

Grace will caused me to be understood...
Grace will gain back all the trust...
Grace keeps me going..

2 Cor 4:7-10
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. 8 We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.

If it's a fight you want devil, it's a fight you get... And don't say that you have not been warned..

Psalm 144:1-2
1Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
2My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.
Psalm 18:39,47
39 For You have girded me with strength for battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me
47 The God who executes vengeance for me,
And subdues peoples under me.


Praise be to God!
